ELABORATELY 1

Miss Binney advocates simple clothes for business and home
wear. i
NEW YORK, March 20.—Common
sense is at a premium in the matter
of dress, says Miss Constance Binney,
star of stage and screen.
If all the world’s a stage and men
and women merely-.players, then most
of the women of the company dress
their parts very badly, in her opin
ion.
“It is not vaity that makes an ac
tress study the question of dress as
seriously as she does any other
phase of her work,” declares Miss
Binney. “She must dress properly
for every scene of every play, or her
characterization of the role she is
trying to portray will fall flat, no
matter how skillful her acting. ”
Study Role in Idfe
In the same way, Miss Binney be
lieves that the woman in home or
business should study the question of
dress in relation to the role she plays
In life. , The business woman should
dress simply. The woman in the
home, no matter how dainty and fra
gile a type of loveliness she may pos
sess, should in pursuance of Miss
Blnney’s theory, avoid flimsy chiffon
negligees and last year’s party slip
pers, if she must attend to her own
housework and care for children.
She should stick to crisy wash hous’'
dresses for home wear, considering
her role and not her type.
Dress Unsuitably
“Everywhere one sees poor women
dressed too elaborately,” says Miss
Binney, ‘"fat women dressed too
tightly, young women dressed with
too much sophistication, old women
dressed too youthfully, working wom
en dressed like the idle rich—all
sorts of persons dressed quite un
suitably for their station in life and
the business in hand. And it’s all
because they never have studied
their roles and how to dress them.”
Too Much Finery
Miss Binney, who is herself barely
old enough to vote, thinks American
girls are inclined to wear clothes
about ten years too old for them] She
was educated in a French convent
and thinks Uncle Sam’s daughters
have too much freedom and too much
finery begore they are really grown
up. She herself, for privat. life,
wears only the simplest and most
girlish clothes. She says she would
not consider wearing a sheath gown
of glittering “vamp” style unless she
were at least thirty-five, because she
thinks it would be unsuiable not only
to her years but to her income.
Farmer Bound Over
On White Slave Charge
At a preliminary hearing before
Judge Colquitt W. Carter, United
States commissioner, H. Thomas
Sockwell, aged twenty-four, a farmer
of Newton county, near Covington,
Ga., was bound over to the April
term of the federal grand jury, on
SSOO bond, charged with violation of
the Mann white slave law.
The evidence introduced at the
hearing alleged that Sockwell had in
duced Mrs. Pauline Crowell, the
young wife of a planter living at
Alma, Ga., to accompany him on a
trip to Atlanta and Jacksonville,
where, it is claimed, they registered
as man and wife and remained sev
eral days.
Sockwell’s actions were looked into
by an investigator of the department
of justice, and his arrest followed
shortly after, on a warrant charging
violation of the Mann act.
It is understood that the husband
of Mrs. Crowell has filed suit for
divorce. She was a witness for the
prosecution at the preliminary hear
ing.

REDS WILLING
TO START PEACE
TALK APRIL 10

LONDON, March 30. George
Tchitcherin, the Russian soviet for
eign minister, has notified Poland of
his willingness to open peace nego
tiations on April 10, as Poland had
suggested, according to a wireless
message from Moscow today.
M. Tchitcherin suggests that the
meeting be held somewhere In Es
thonia.
The Poles had asked that the ne
gotiations be conducted at Borisov,
on the Beresina river, between Minsk
and Smolensk.
ANTI-BOLSHEVIK LEADER
SAID TO HAVE ESCAPED
LONDON, March 30.—General
Denikin, leader of the anti-Bolshevlk
forces in south Russia, escaped from
Novorossisk when the soviet armies
captured that port last week, the
British war office has been informed.
It had been feared Denikin might
have fallen into the hands of the
Bolsheviki. He made a “last stand”
defense against the reds at Novoros
sick and was defeated. The war of
fice admitted this defeat practically
eliminated the antl-Bolshevik move
ment in south Russia.
Great Britain backed Denikin
heavily, supplying him with arms,
foodstuffs and munitions.
Find Conditions Good
In State Prison Camps
Returning from an inspection trip
through several south Georgia coun

stopped over in Atlanta Monday
night. The subcommittee is com
posed of Senator Clarence E. Adams,
of the Thirtieth district, with Repre
sentatives Will Richards, of Pickens,
and S. O. Penland, of Gilmer.
They declared that conditions in
the convict camps in Mitchell, Baker,
Miller, Early and Clay counties ware
found to be satisfactory, although
minor suggestions were made in one
or two instances. Other counties
will be visited from time to time and
a full report made to the 1920 legis
lature.
No Cocktails on Sands

NEW YORK. “Cocktails-on-the

other fashionable watering places
along the Connecticut, Rhode Island
and Long Island shores this summer
—at least not if James Shevlin, pro
hibition commissioner of the New
York department, and his flock of
keen-eyed agents can help it. The
commissioner rules that carrying
alcoholic stimulants from a clubhouse
to the bathing beach—by thermos
bottle, or on the hip, or otherwise—
is in violation of the “dry” amend
ment, and decrees that it is not to
be done in our best circles.

WILSON MESSAGE
TO DELAY PEACE
MOVE IN HOUSE
WASHINGTON, March 30—Presi
dent Wilson, by sending word to
house Democrats to kill the resolu
tion declaring peace with Germany,
will be able to delay but not prevent
passage of the measure, Republican
house leaders said today. . The
president’s request was conveyed to
congressmen last night.
A bitter partisan fight looms as a
result. Indications are Republican
leaders cannot force the resolution
through this week.
Republican Leader Mondell today
was informed by Representative
Flood, Virginiafi ranking Democrat
on the committee and prominent
Wilson suporter, that a majority
of the Democrats will oppose a
sweeping peace resolution. Mr.
Flood declared enough Democrats
were certain to stand by the presi
dent to prevent the resolution re
ceiving a two-thirds majority, which
would assure its passage over a
veto.
The president has sent no formal
message to house Democrats, but
word that he desires the resolu
tion killed is being passed around
quietly in minority ranks as com
ing from official sources. As a re
suit Mr. Flood and other Democrats
are suggesting that congress pass a
resolution requesting the president
to proclaim peace. Such a sugges
tion is opposed by Republicans who
assert it would accomplish nothing.
Should the president fail to pro
claim peace, Mr. Flood would then
have congress repeal the sixty re
strictive war laws one by one. This,
the Republicans say, would take sev
eral months, as hearings would be
necessary to determine what laws
could be eliminated with a state of
war still existing.
Bergdoll Is Sentenced
To 5 Years in Prison by
Army Courts-Martial
NEW YORK, March 30. —Grover
Cleveland Bergdoll, Philadelphia mil
lionairefi, today was found guilty of
charges of evading the draft, it was
announced at Governor’s Island here.
Bergdoll was sentenced to serve
five years in the military jail at
Governor’s Island. He will forfeit all
pay, be dishonorably discharged from
the army and lose his citizenship.
The merdlct of the court-martial
was returned March 17 and was re
viewed and approved today by Lieu
tenant General Robert L. Bullard.
The military court found Bergdoll
technically guilty on the charge of
desertion from the army from Au
gust 18, 1918, to January 7, 1920.
A war-time sentence was imposed.
The peace time sentence for desertion
is only one year and six months.
Bergdoll was arrested in his Phil
adelphia home last aJnuary after
having eluded department of justice
agents for more than a year. In his
flight to evade the officers he visited
every state in the union, traveling in
automobiles which he purchased
along the road. As soon as one car
became disabled he purchased a new
one.
When the case was brought before
general court-martial, Bergdoll en
tered a plea of emotional insanity.
He maintained that he had been
frightened as he was about to report
to his Philadelphia draft board for
physical examination,-'and fled be
cause of “some impelling motive.”
When the prosecution closed its
case Harry Weinberger, the million
aire’s attorney refused to allow his
client to take the stand, maintaining
the government had failed to make a
case because of technical errors.
Bergdoll’s brother, Irwin Bergdoll,
who also failed to report for service
in the army still is at large. Police
at the trial expressed the belief that
he had fled to Mexico.

AMERICAN CANAL
IS PLANNED FOR
IMPERIAL VALLEY
/
EL CENTRO, Cal. —A co-operative
water company plan for building an
all-American canal has been pending
in the Imperial valley for the last
two years. This scheme, fostered by
the Imperial Laguna Water com
pany, a corporation, has been used
by the Mexican interests as a lever
to work for defeat of the Kettner
bill.
The corporation was organized and
all of its stock Is held by sixty-flve
persons, headed by Mark Rose, an
Imperial valley farmer and capital
ist. It proposes the building of an
all-American canal of capacity for
about 250,000 acres, from the Col
orado river to a mesa at the east
side of the Imperial valley, where
development of a tract of land is
projected.
An agreement was entered into
between this company and the de
partment of the interior, represented
by its then secretary, Franklin K.
Lane, which in effect gave the stock
holders first rights to file on the gov
ernment lands which the proposed
canal would open for .settlement.
This agreement is valid and still in
full force and effect, government at
torneys recently testified before the
house arid lands committee during a
hearing on the Kettner bill.
The Kettner bill would give first
chance to file on the land to war
veterans.
Rose protested the bill, and with
the support, it is asserted of water
ed Mexican lands, managed to have’
the measure held in committee.

MAYO SAYS NAVY
WAS PREPARED
FOR WAR IN 1917
WASHINGTON, March 30.—The
Atlantic fleet never was better pre
pared for war than when it came
from Cuban waters late in March,
1917, after its winter battle practice,
Rear Admiral Henry T. Mayo, for
mer commander-in-chief of the fleet,
today told the senate committee in
vestigating the navy’s conduct of the
war.
The personnel was on a peace ba
sis and somewhat inadequate, the ad
miral said, but officers and men
were confident and well trained and
target practice in southern waters
had shown gratifying results.
No written plan or policy for the
participation of the fleet in the war
was given him when the United
States joined the allies, Rear Ad
miral Mayo testified, but in conver
sation with Admiral Benson, chief
of naval operations and other depart
ment officials he was informed that
the missions of his command were
to prepare for instant service; to
protect the coasts of the United
States and to train naval personnel.
In previous testimony it had been
developed the navy department con
sidered Rear Admiral Mayo to be the
immediate superior of Rear Admiral
Sims, whose letter of January 7, to
Secretary Daniels, precipiated the
present investigation. Rear Admiral
Sims testified that he considered
Rear Admiral Mayo his technical su
perior but that he made most of his
reports and recommendations direct
to the department.
HEAVY STORM WEAKENED
ESCORT, STATES FLETCHER
WASHINGTON, March 30. —The
escort of the convoy which includ
ed the transport Antilles was weak
ened the. night before that vessel
was sunk by the return to Brest of
one of the escorting yachts on ac
count of a heavy sea, Rear Admiral
William B. Fletcher testified today
before the naval board investigating
his removal from the Brest com
mand by Read Admiral Sims - after
the Antilles was torpedoed in Oc
tober, 1917.
“The escorting yacht Kanawha
left the convoy on the night of Oc
tober 16 because of the rough
weather,” Admiral Fletcher testi
fied, “leaving the Antilles and two
other transports with only two
yachts as an escort. The Antilles
was sunk about dawn the next
morning.
Admiral Fletcher previously had
testified that operations of his es
cort forces, composed entirely of
converted yachts up to that time,
were seriously handicapped on, sev
eral occasions by rough wefether,
which destroyers, he said, could
have faced without trouble.
Indications Are That
Irish Home Rule Bill
Will Be Modified
LONDON, March 30;—Considerable
modification in the fourth rish home
rule bill will be made when it comes
to the committee stage, according to
indications given in the first day of
debate on the measure yesterday.
Its adoption is probable, and speak
ers reflected the opinion that the
difficulty would come when attempts
were made to apply it.
Interest in the bill appeared some
what lukewarm, considering the im
portance of the occasion, but it was
evident that all minds were centered
on the impression the proposed leg
islation would make on Anglo-Amer
ican relations. A very crowded
house listened to the debate, the
only exciting phase of which was
the uproar caused by an address by
William Wedgewood Benn, relative
to the assassination of Lord Mayor
Mac Curtain, of Cork.

Without An
Operation
Wonderful Healing of Rupture
How a New Jersey Man Got
Rid of a Severe, Obstinate,
• Right Inguinal Hernia With
out the Slightest Trouble.
Below Is a picture of Eugene M.
Pullen, a well-ftnown carpenter of
Manasquan, New Jersey. If you
could see him at his work, particu-,
larly when he handles heavy timber,
and climbs around like a
youth, you would scarcely imagine
that he had formerly been afflicted
with a rupture.

Ruptured in Right Bide.
At an early age, Eugene Pullen
was an express driver. He handled
railroad baggage. One day after de
livering a heavy trunk on an upper
floor he felt a pain in the right groin.
The suffering increased and it was
not long before the young man no
ticed the swelling.
The doctor told young Pullen that
he was ruptured and that he must
either wear a truss throughout life
or submit to a drastic operation. All
surgeons know that hernia opera
tions, with anaesthetics, etc., are
dangerous; they may end fatally.
Moreover, it is a well established
fact that many rupture operations
are not successful; the> bowel soon
breaks through the sewed-up opening
and protrudes worse than ever.
Afraid of Operation.
Like most others, Mr. Pullen de
clined to take the risks of an opera
tion; the expense and loss of time
had to be considered, too. Hoping
he might get a little better encour
agement, he went to another physi
cian who, to his sorrow, gave him
even less hope. It was pointed out
to the young man that unless the
rupture were perfectly held all the
time or the surgeon’s knife success
fully used, he miaffit expect an in
crease or doubling in the rupture
with further complications, or the
dreaded strangulated hernia which
kills so many ruptured people.
Victim of Trusses.
The victim bought a truss, a hard,
spring-like affair, the best he could
get. It tortured him. He tried an
other —still no relief. He was com
pelled to give up his express busi
ness. The hard tasks of ordinary
men were forbidden him. He became
an insurance agent, in which posi
tion he did not need to do bodily
work.
-For six years Mr. Pullen dragged
around, using various trusses, hard,
elastic, etc., with never any content
ment. One day his mother told him
something she had just found out.
It was a simple and easy thing for
him to do. He lost no time.
Discarded His Truss.
Relief came at once; he almost
forgot that he had any rupture.
Afterward came a cure—a complete
healing—and, although years have
passed and Mr. Pullen is an ener
getic carpenter, working on build
ings, climbing over roofs, lifting
lumber and such like, he is absolute
ly free from the old hernia. He
knows he is completely, lastingly
cured. There was no operation, no
lost time, no trouble —comfort and
contentment from the very outset.
He is a strong, cheerful-minded man.
Valuable Information Free.
The valuable information which
Mrs. Pullen read in a newspaper
many years ago and gave to her son,
together with further important
facts, will be sent free to any reader
of this who writes to Eugene M.
Pullen, 929-F Marcellus avenue,
Manasquan, N. J., enclosing a stamp
for reply. Mention the kind of rup
ture you have, whether on right or
left side and what you have already
done in your effort to cure it. A
legion of cases of all kinds of rup
ture in men and women, including
inguinal (groin), femoral, navel,
scrotal, etc., have been reported com
pletely healed. Age seems to make
no difference.—(Advt.)
